PREFACE. 


THE  following  abridgment  of  the  "  PHONOGRAPHIC  PRONOUN- 
CING DICTIONARY"  has  been  prepared  with  particular  reference 
to  the  purposes  of  education.  It  has  not,  therefore,  been  the  de- 
sign so  much  to  enlarge  the  vocabulary,  by  the  insertion  of  all  the 
varieties  of  derivative  and  uncommon  words,  as  to  present  com- 
mon and  radical  words  in  good  modern  use,  with  their  pronuncia- 
tion distinctly  exhibited,  and  with  definitions  sufficiently  extended 
to  be  of  real  use  to  the  learner  —  as  the  brevity  of  the  defini- 
tions in  most  school  dictionaries  diminishes  very  materially  their 
value. 

The  introductory  observations  on  the  derivation  and  formation 
of  words  one  from  another,  by  forming  a  general  classification  in 
the  minds  of  learners,  will,  it  is  believed,  be  of  more  use  than  the 
insertion  of  all  these  words  in  the  body  of  the  work  ;  while  it 
leaves  the  space  they  would  occupy  to  be  filled  with  more  impor- 
tant matter. 

The  plurals  of  nouns  which  are  formed  irregularly,  are  gener- 
ally given  —  in  some  instances,  perhaps,  where  a  regular  forma- 
tion would  be  preferable,  as  memorandum,  index,  criterion,  beau, 
cherub,  and  other  words  adopted,  without  alteration,  from  ancient 
or  foreign  tongues.  Words,  when  introduced  as  strangers,  may 
be  allowed  to  appear  in  their  foreign  costume ;  but  when  fully 
naturalized,  they  should  be  made,  as  far  as  practicable,  to  conform 
to  the  analogies  of  our  language ;  and  no  one  need  hesitate  to 
use  regularly-formed'plurals  in  such  cases,  when  not  inconsistent 
with  euphonic  expression.  The  age  of  literary  aristocracy,  when, 
learned  anomalies,  like  the  insignia  of  heraldry,  were  necessary 


4  PREFACE. 

to  mark  the  falsely-formed  gradations' of  society,  is  fast  receding 
before  the  true  light  of  science  emanating  from  that  general  and 
healthy  exercise  of  individual  mind,  which  is  coextensive  with 
disenthralment  from  arbitrary  rule.  The  same  remarks  may,  to 
a  considerable  extent,  be  applied  to  the  pronunciation  of  foreign 
words.  To  continue  irregularities  beyond  necessity,  is,  with  the 
learned,  pedantry  ;  with  the  unlearned,  affectation. 

The  perfect  and  present  participles  of  verbs  are  given,  when 
they  vary,  either  in  spelling  or  pronunciation,  from  the  spelling 
and  pronunciation  of  the  verb,  together  with  the  addition  of  the 
syllables  ed  and  ing  fully  pronounced.  When  not  given,  they 
are  formed  by  the  addition  of  ed  and  ing,  fully  pronounced,  as 
addict  —  addicted,  addicting. 

The  preterits  of  verbs  are  given,  when  they  differ  from  the 
perfect  participle  ;  when  not  given,  they  are  the  same  as  the  per- 
fect participle. 

As  correct  pronunciation  constitutes  an  important  feature  in 
education,  and  as  it  is  most  readily  acquired  in  youth,  before 
wrong  habits  are  confirmed  by  practice,  it  is  made  to  constitute  a 
prominent  feature  in  the  present  work,  and  the  pronounced  vocab- 
ularies of  Greek,  Latin,  Scripture,  Christian,  and  Geographical 
proper  names,  have  been  inserted  entire.  There  are  probably 
more  errors  committed  in  the  pronunciation  of  proper  names, 
than  in  that  of  any  other  class  of  words  —  arising,  no  doubt,  from 
the  fact  that,  in  elementary  works,  the  knowledge  of  their  or- 
thoepy could  not  be  attained  by  the  younger  student,  and  in 
after-life  there  is  little  time,  and  less  inclination,  to  pursue  the 
subject.  The  reading  of  these  vocabularies,  with  particular  ref- 
erence to  their  pronunciation,  will  constitute  a  profitable  school 
exercise.

LANGUAGE. 

LANGUAGE,  in  its  most  extended 
sense,  is  the  faculty  of  communicating 
the  affections,  perceptions,  and  ideas, 
between  sentient  beings. — In  a  more 
strict  sense,  it  is  the  adoption  of  cer- 
tain articulate  sounds  called  words, 
mostly  learned  by  imitation,  and 
agreed  upon  by  tacit  compact,  as 
signs  of  ideas.  Spoken  language  in- 
volves the  knowledge  and  utterance 
of  these  articulations,  and  written  lan- 
guage consists  in  the  use  of  certain 
definite  and  visible  characters  to  rep- 
resent them. 

Language  is  the  principal  medinm 
through  which  our  faculties  receive 
instruction  and  improvement ;  and 
those  investigations,  which  have  for 
their  object  the  analysis  of  its  com- 
bined powers,  and  the  development  of 
its  constituent  principles,  are  highly 
worthy  of  attention. 

SECTION  I. 

OF    HUMAN    SPEECH. 

THE  formation  of  the  human  voice, 
as  observed  in  the  various  modula- 
tions of  speech,  constitutes  a  most  in- 
teresting subject  of  inquiry,  the  cor- 
rect understanding  of  which  can  not 
fail  to  be  a  source  of  pleasure  and 
profit  to  all  who  will  be  at  the  pains 
to  acquire  it. 

The  mouth,  with  its  accompanying 
organs,  is  so  fashioned  as  to  be  capa- 
1* 


ble  of  forming,  with  the  greatest  nicety 
of  distinction,  all  that  variety  of  articu- 
lations necessary  for  the  purposes  of 
spoken  language.  Subjoined  is  a  suc- 
cinct description  of  the  organs  of 
speech. 

SECTION  II. 

OF  THE  ORGANS  WHICH  PRODUCE  THE 
VOICE. 

THE  breath,  or  air  from  the  lungs, 
is  changed  into  the  clear,  distinct,  au- 
dible sound  called  voice,  by  strong 
exertions  of  the  lungs,  and  the  whole 
cavity  of  the  chest,  throat,  and  month, 
and  in  particular  made  capable  of  an- 
swering the  purposes  of  speech,  by 
certain  organs  which  lie  at  the  top  of 
the  windpipe. 

The  trachea,  or  windpipe,  is  that 

I  tube  which  conveys  air  into  and  from 

the  lungs,  and  consists  of  cartilages,  or 

gristles,  so  strong  as  to  enable  it  to 

stand  firm  and  uncompressed. 

The  top  of  the  windpipe  consists  of 
four  cartilages,  which  altogether  form 
what  is  called  the  larynx  ;  and  the 
epiglottis  forms  a  fifth  cartilage  be- 
longing to  the  windpipe. 

The  epiglottis  is  a  broad  triangular 
cartilage,  very  elastic.  It  has  a  pow- 
erful influence  upon  speech :  but  its 
peculiar  office  is  to  defend  the  aper- 
ture or  opening  of  the  windpipe  into 
the  mouth,  which  opening  is  called  the 
glottis.  It  acts  like  a  valve,  standing 
j  directly  over  the  glottis,  and  flaps

The  air,  or  mere  breath  from  the  !  or  tongue,  which  is  suspended  from 
lungs,  is  formed  into  voice  by  the  j  the  extreme  back  of  the  palate,  or 
movements  of  the  larynx,  and  by  tl>e  j  roof  of  the  month,  over  the  glottis,  or

branes,  are  performed  with  an  accn-  !  organ,  or  it  is  more  or  less  raised,  or 
racy  and  minuteness  so  exquisitely  i  depressed,  contracted,  or  expanded, 
nice,  that,  for  every  change  of  note  in  and  placed  in  a  particular  position,  in 
singing,  they  are  contracted,  or  ex-  ',  producing  every  sound.  In  short,  it 
panded,  in  a  proportioned  degree  ;  is  very  much  like  a  wave  of  the  sea, 
every  contraction,  or  expansion,  pro-  j  which  is  perpetually  undulating,

eighth  of  an  inch ;  and  is,  naturally, 
greater  in  men  than  in  boys  and  wom- 
en ;  in  consequence  of  which,  the 
voices  of  men  are  naturally  deeper,

tact  of  the  organs,  to  intercept  the 
voice.  This  species  of  articulation  is 
called  a  votcel. 

The  next  articulations  called  sim- 
ple, though,  in  fact,  they  are  really 
compound  sounas,  are  the  consonants, 
which  are  formed  by  different  con- 
tacts of  the  organs  of  speech;  but,  as 
no  contact  of  any  of  the  organs  can, 
by  itself,  produce  an  articulate  sound, 
every  movement  and  contact  must  be 
assisted  by  an  impulse,  or  stroke  of 
the  voice,  which,  by  its  action  on  the 
organs,  gives  them  the  power  of -pro- 
ducing a  sound,  which  is  called  a  con- 
sonant sound,  from  the  Latin  word 
consonans  (sounding  with,  or  togeth- 
er), because  it  sounds,  or  is  heard, in 
conjunction  with  the  vowel  or  diph- 
thong ;  at  the  same  time  that  the  im- 
pulse, or  stroke  of  the  voice,  assumes 
the  form  of  some  particular  vowel,  at 
the  will  of  the  speaker,  and  according 
to  the  degree  in  which  -the  niouth  is 
opened,  to  -give  the  two  sounds  thus 
united  a  passage. 

Hence  it  is  evident  that  a  vowel 
has  a  positive  existence  without  the 
aid  of  a  consonant;  but  a  consonant 
can  have  no  existence  without  the  aid 
of  a  vowel. 

SECTION  V. 

TABLE,   OR  SCHEME    OF    THE    %S'HOLE 
ALPHABET. 

THE  number  of  simple  vowel  and  \ 
consonant  sounds  in  our  tongue  is  j 
twenty-eight,  and  one  pure  aspira- 
.tion,  h,  making  in  all  twenty-nine. 

VOWELS. 

There  are  nine  vowel  sounds,  rep- 
resented in  the  notation  of  the  pronun- 
ciation in  this  dictionary  by  the  follow-  j 
ing  figured  letters,  whose  sounds  may  I 
be  ascertained  by  the  ordinary  pro- 
nunciation of  the  words  in  which  they 
are  placed : — 

all,  a'rt,  a"ce,  e've,  no',  to',  bet7,  b!t', 
but1. 


6  Of  these  are  long,  that  is,  they  can 
be  prolonged  at  pleasure :  viz.,  a,  8, 
3,  <*,  6,  6,  in  all,  art,  ace,  ere,  no,  to ; 
and 

3  In  their  nature  absolutely  short,  so 
that  they  can  not  be  at  all  prolonged, 
-or  sounded  by  themselves,  e, !,  fl,  in 
ell,  ill,  us. 

CONSONANTS. 

There  are  nineteen  simple  conso- 
nant sounds:  eb, ed,  ef,  eg,  ek,  el,  em, 
en,  ep,  er,  es,  et,  ev,  ez,  etfi,  eth,  esh, 
ezh,  ing.* 

Two  of  the  characters  in  our  alpha- 
bet are  superfluous — c  and  q.  C  has 
the  power  of  k  or  f,  as  in  call,  cell ; 
and  q  has  always  the  power  of  A'. 

T%vo  of  the  alphabetical  characters, 
j  and  x  represent  compound  sounds  : 
.;'  that  of  dzh,  as  in  James  ;  and  x  that 
.of  ks,  or  gz,  as  in  excel,  e.rert.  The 
characters  ch  also  often  represent  the 
compound  sound  of  tsh,  as  in  such, 
winch. 

The  letter  k  is  merely  a  note  of  as- 
piration. 

DIPHTHONGS. 

A  DI-PHTHOSG,  or  compound  vocal 
articulation,  is  the  union  of  two  or 
more  vowels  in  one  articulation,  or 
syllable,  and  is  produced  by  pronoun- 

*  From  the  above  scheme  of  the  al- 
phabet, it  will  be  seen  that  there  are 
eleven  simple  sounds  for  which  no 
distinct  characters  are  given  :  six 
vowel  sounds,  a,  8,  6,  e,  I,  fi.  and  five 
consonant  sounds,  th,  III,  sh,  zh,  ng. 
Should  suitable  characters  adapted 
both  to  writing  and  printing  be  adopt- 
ed representing  these  sounds,  and  the 
two  superfluous  characters  c  and  q  be 
omitted,  it  would  greatly  simplify  our 
language  and  facilitate  its  acquisi- 
tion ;  it  would  relieve  us  from  the 
awkward  necessity  of  representing 
several  sounds  by  one  character,  or 
of  using  two  characters  to  represent 
one  sound

DERIVATION. 

Having  shown  how  the  voice  is 
formed  and  variously  modified  into 
the  pimple  articulations  of  speech, 
which  by  various  combinations  con- 
Btitute  syllables  and  words,  it  remains 
to  show  how  words  are  multiplied  by 
formation  one  from  another,  for  the 
purpose  of  modifying  their  signif- 
ication or  their  grammatical  construc- 
tion, either  by  initial  or  terminations] 
additions  or  variations.  The  initial 
additional  words  or  syllables  which 
constitute  these  variations  are  called 
prefixes,  and  the  terminational,«/ff.;rs. 
These  additions  may  consist  of  whole 
words,  as  turn,  overturn,  in  which 
case  they  are  called  compound 
words. — or  of  syllables  which  have 
no  separate  existence  in  our  lan- 
guage, but  in  general  are  words  from 
ancient  or  foreign  tongues ;  these  are 
called  derivative  words,  as  able,  dis- 
able,  (Usability,  though,  strictly  speak- 
ing, all  derivative  words  are  com- 
pound. 

Words  are  derived  from  one  an- 
other in  a  great  variety  of  ways  ;  we 
shall  not  attempt  to  designate  them 
all,  but,  after  exhibiting  a  few,  shall 
insert  alphabetical  tables  of  prefixes 
and  affixes  with  definitions,  which, 
though  necessarily  vague,  will  convey 
a  general  idea  of  their  effect  in  com- 
position. 

Verbs  are  derived  from  nouns,  ad- 
jectives, and  sometimes  from  adverbs, 
as  from  love,  short,  forward — come,  to 
love,  to  shorten,  to  forward. 

Nouns  are  formed  from  verbs,  ad- 
jectives, and  other  nouns,  as  from 


siirvirc,  swift,  knave,  come  surviver 
tvnftness,  knavery. 

Adjectives  are  derived  from  nouns, 
by  a  great  number  of  terminations,  as 
y,  en,  ful,  some,  ksx,  ly,  ink,  able,  &c.f 
&c.,  thus:  healthy,  icoolhn,  joyful, 
troublesome,  careless,  manly,  childish, 
chri  mreable. 

Adverbs  are  derived  from  adjec- 
tives, as  basely,  slowly. 

ON  THE  FORMATION  OF  PLURALS. 

Plurals  are   formed    regularly   by 
adding  s  to  the  singular,  and  when 
j  the  termination  of  the  singular  is  such 
as  to  admit  of  it,  the  plural  does  not 
1  form  a  separate  syllable,  but  simply 
)  adds  the  sound  of  s,  which  in  this  case 
is  that  of  z,  as  in  desk,  dc sks ;  but  if 
the  termination  of   the   singular    bo 
such  that  s  can  not  be  sounded  with 
it,  it  must  form  a  separate  syllable,  as 
house,   houses.      If   the   singular  be 
such  that  the  sound  of  s  will  not  com- 
bine with  it,  cs  mnst  be  added  in  the 
plural,  as  mass,  masses. 

Words  endiiiLT  in  y,  with  no  other 
vowel  in  the  same  syllable,  change  y 
into  ics  in  the  plural,  as  in  duty,  du- 
ties. But  if  another  vowel  occur  in 
the  same  syllable,  the  plural  is  formed 
regularly  by  the  addition  of  s  only,  as 
in  Mt>nry,  moneys. 

ON  THE  FORMATION  OF  PARTICIPLES. 

Participles  are  regularly  formed  by 
tho  addition  of  rd  and  ing  to  the  verb, 

i  as  detest,  perfect  participle  detested, 
present  participle  dcli-stin™;  but  when 
the  verb  ends  in  e  not  sounded,  d  only 
is  added  in  the  perfect  participle,  and 
the  final  e  is  omitted  in  the  formation 
of  the  present  participle,  as  adriincc, 
ed, advancing.  When  the  verb 
ends  in  y,  with  no  other  vowel  in  the 
same  syllable,  y  is  changed  into  i  in 

i  jhe  pp.,  but  is  retained  in  the  ppr.,  as 

I  defy,  defied,  defying.  The  third  per- 
son singular  of  regular  verbs  gener 

j  ally  adds  s,  as,  I  love,  he  loves. _

To  show  the  importance  of  a  general 
knowledge  of  the  prefixes  and  affixes, 
it  is  only  necessary  to  state,  that  they 
enter  into  the  composition  and  vary 
the  signification  of  about  seventy  thou- 
sand words.  The  following  example 
pretty  fully  illustrates  their  power  and 
use.  —  The  word  press  has  eighty-four 
derivatives,  formed  by  the  addition  of 
these  appendages,  as  follows  :  — 

Press,   preaser,   pressure,  pressed, 


pressing,  pression,  pressingly.  Over- 
press.  Counterpressure.  Compress, 
compressed,  compression,  compres- 
sing, compressible,  com  pressure,  com- 
pressibility, compressibleness.  Un- 
compressed, uncompressible ;  incom- 
pressibility.  Repress,  repressed,  re- 
pression, repressive,  repressing,  re- 
presser, repressively.  Irrepressible.

pressor, depressible,  depressing.  Ex- 
press, expressed,  expression,  expres- 
sible, expressnre,  expressive,  expres- 
sing, expressly,  expressively,  expres- 
siveness. Inexpressible,  inexpressive, 
inexpressibly,  inexpressibility.  Unex- 
pressed, unexpressible,  unexpressive. 
Impress,  impressed,  impression,  im- 
pressing, impressive,  impressure,  im- 
pressible, impressment,  impressively, 

!  impressiveness,  impressibility.  Reim-

pressiveness. Inoppressive.  Suppress,

j  sion,  insuppressible.    Unsuppressed. 

It  should  be  observed  that  the  same 
combination  of  letters  does  not  always 
constitute  a  prefix  or  affix,  but  are 
sometimes  parts  of  a  primitive  word, 
in  which  cases  of  course  the  preceding 
remarks  do  not  apply.  A  little  obser- 
vation, however,  will  soon  enable  even 
the  mere  English  scholar  to  discrimin- 
ate between  them. 


EXPLANATORY  REMARKS  ON  THE 
PLAN  OF  THIS  DICTIONARY. 
THE  following  key-line,  which  ex- 
hibits the  nine  simple  vowel  sounds 
1  of   the  English  language,  with  the 
1  short  quantity  of  the  only  three  which 
:  admit  of  a  short  quantity,  and  with 
i  the  sounds  always  represented  by  the 
vowel  characters,  y,  i,  u.  will  be  con- 
tinued throughout  the  Dictionary,  as 
the  head-line  of  every  page : — 


INTRODUCTION. 


&T1,  a'rt,  d'ce,  S've,  n6',  t6',  bet',  b!t',  hot'— 6n',  was7,  it'— g6od'— y,  8—f,  a. 


ill.  a'rt,  a'ce,  SVe,  no',  t8',  bet',  b!f, 
b8t'~6n',  was',  dt'-g8od'-$,  e-i,  u. 

In  the  notation  of  this  dictionary,  the 
aspirated  sound  of  fti,  as  in  theme,  will 
be  distinguished  from  the  partly  vocal 
and  partly  aspirated  sound,  as  heard 
in  then,  by  a  stroke  across  the  top  of 
the  letters,  thus,  Ifi. 

The  three  duplicates,  or  short 
Bounds,  of  <Y,  in  a'll,  8',  in  a'rt,  and  6', 
in  t8',  which  are  represented  in  the 
key-line,  by  a,  in  was',  a,  in  at',  and  6, 
in  g8od,  being  never  heard  except 
when  they  precede  a  consonant,  with 
the  accent  on  that  consonant,  are 
marked  by  the  figures  that  are  placed 
over  their  correlative  long  sound",  the 
consonant  which  follows  them  show- 
ing that  they  are  sounded  short,  as  it 
would  be  impossible  to  distinguish  the 
consonant  by  an  accent,  without  pas- 
sing quickly  over,  and  thus  reducing 
to  a  short  quantity  the  vowel  or  diph- 
thong which  precedes  it  in  the  same 
syllable.  Accordingly,  the  sound  a', 
which  is  accented,  and  therefore  dwelt 
on,  or  capable  of  being  dwelt  on,  in 
a'll,  is  reduced  to  a  short  quantity  in 
was',  because  the  consonant  is  accent- 
ed, and  the  two  vowels  forming  a 
diphthong  are  rapidly  passed  over  in 
order  to  accent  it.  So  the  8,  in  at', 
differs  only  in  quantity  from  the  a,  in 
a'rt;  and  the  sound  of  8,  in  g8od',  dif- 
fers only  in  quantity,  not  sound,  from 
the  8,  in  t8',  d8',  pro've,  by  the  accent 
being  on  the  consonant  in  the  former, 
and  on  the  vowel  in  the  latter. 

The  vowel  sound  S,  in  A'ce,  pa'ce  ; 
the  vowel  sound  &,  in  S'vc,  hfi'rc  ;  and 
the  vowel  sound  d,  in  n&',  g&',  Sec., 
whether  accented  and  prolonged  or 
not,  are  always  the  same,  and  can 
scarcely  be  said  to  have  a  short  quan- 
tity ;  so  that  three  of  the  long  vowels, 
&,  a,  8,  as  in  a'll,  8'rt,  t&',  have  a  short 
quantity  in  was',  at',  g&od' ;  the  other 
three,  3,  8,  8,  have  not  a  short  quantity. 

The  sound  of  the  letter  w,  in  every 
syllable  and  word  in  which  it  appears 
in  the  writing  of  words,  whether  in 
the  beginning,  middle,  or  ending,  rep- 


resenting exactly  the  same  sound  as 
that  of  8,  in  t8',  whether  it  be  sounded 
long  or  short,  will  always  be  repre- 
sented by  the  vowel  6,  being  always 
a  vowel. 

The  letter  u,  in  diphthongs,  repre- 
Fentiii!,'  exactly  the  same  sound  as  w, 
in  wit,  will,  like  w,  be  represented  by 
8 ;  for,  take  the  •words  wit',  wick',  quit', 
quick',  and  remove  the  q  from  fhe  lat- 
ter two,  and  you  will  instantly  per- 
ceive that  the  w,  the  u,  and  the  vowel 
6,  in  t8',  represent  exactly  the  same 
sound  in  the  diphthongs  wi  and  ui,  as 
wit',  wick',  uit',  uick','8lt',  8!k'. 

As  the  letter  y  always  represents 
the  sound  of  e  or  i ;  3  in  thebeginning 
of  every  word,  ye',  yo'u,  yet',  young', 
e£,  48,  «!3t',  ^fing7 ;  and  frequently  in 
the  ending,  as  in  lovely,  lftv-13  ;  when 
so  sounded,  it  should  be  invariably 
represented  by  & ;  and  when  it  if 
pounded  i,  as  in  try,  by  the  letter  i. 

When  the  letters  i  and  n  represent, 
as  diphthongs,  the  sound  of  their  names 
in  the  alphabet,  whether  under  the  pri- 
mary or  secondary  accent,  they  are 
distinguished  by  the  accentual  mark, 
as  in  contrite,  destitute;  thus, kon-tri't, 
d£s-t6-tu't.  But  in  all  syllables  where 
i  and  u  retain  their  full  sounds,  unac- 
cented, no  mark  is  placed  over  them  ; 
thus,  refluent,  coagulate,  rectifier,  niP 
lu-ent,  kS-ag-'u-Li't,  rek^.fi  fir. 

As  the  letters  A,  in  6n',  and  a,  in 
was/,  both  represent  the  short  sound 
of  a,  in  a'll,  they  are  sometimes  used 
indiscriminately. 

When  an  accented  diphthong  oc- 
curs in  a  syllable,  as  in  foul,  oil,  boil, 
bound,  the  accent  is  placed  on  the  lat- 
ter vowel,  thus,  faft'l,  ,\S'l,  bad'l,  b.Wnd. 

Instead  of  dzh,  the  compound  sound 
of  which  soft  g  and  j  are  composed,  j 
only  is  made  use  of  as  a  perfect  mark 
for  the  full  compound  sound.    The  ad- 
vantage of  this  notation  in  clearness 
and  simplicity,  may  be  seen  by  the 
following  examples : — 
Spelling.      Sheridan.      Walker.  This  Die. 
Grudge,     grndzh        grudje     grfij'. 
Judge,       dzhudzh     judje       joj'.

In  the  notation  of  all  the  dipthongal 
sounds  commencing  with  the  vowel 
characters  e  and  i,  ^  representing  S  is 
made  use  of,  as  in  union,  u'n-ySu,  right- 
eous, ri't-yus. 

It  may  be  proper  here  to  state,  that 
not  only  have  words  their  accented 
syllables,  but  syllables  and  monosyl- 


lables their  accented  letters;  accord- 
ingly, in  this  dictionary,  the  accent  is 
placed  on  the  letter  on  which  the 
stress  is  laid  in  pronunciation. 

The  plurals  of  nouns  and  parti- 
ciples and  preterits  of  verbs,  when 
irregularly  formed,  are  generally 
given.
